Hi Kevin,
Is this still for sale ?
It sounds nice and crisp. How do you feel the cedar is different to the spruce ones that you have made ? I have played the guitars that Louis and Lawrence own and they are nice loud guitars great for dance.
Cheers

Simon Yes still for sale; selling is not my strong point.
And describing sound is tricky. But the main thing about cedar is that it produces a bright ringing sound, very flamenco. Many people like this. Actually I prefer a drier, cleaner sound myself. My own guitars (one blanca and one negra) are both spruce tops.
But this is a lovely instrument with a nice setup; easy to play and loud too.

looks good mate.. do you ever do cutaways?
krichards -> RE: Kevin Richards No 32 Cedar Blanca (Dec. 24 2013 7:46:50)
I've done steel strung cutaways in the past, but as far as flamenco is concerned I'm very traditional, so no.
